Gainesville police said two men were shot on Jan. 30 in the parking lot of Village Shoppes at Gainesville off Dawsonville Highway.

The two men were taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Through their investigation, Gainesville detectives obtained a search warrant for Guillermo Vazquez Martinez, 42. Martinez is facing two counts of aggravated assault.
